    is there a way to play music in modpack FTB revelation (yo offical pack)

    Botania has a cacophonium, which plays animal sounds. You can then tune a note block to that sound, then randomly play it with a redstone signal. If you can make a server-official resource pack, you can basically get any sound to play over that note block. Of course, any of that same animal...

    The three of us been busy since Verdant arrived. I least of all... I spent most of this time tending to my crops. I borrowed some steel from Chert to make a watering can, which I imbued with a mixture of kiwi, corn, and beet seeds. I know it doesn't sound too magical, but it really does help...

    Closed Assembly table not recognizing ingredients (expert mode)

    Huh, I figured it out. I had cheated in the circuit board, which caused the problem. A fresh one out of the carpenter works fine.

    Closed Assembly table not recognizing ingredients (expert mode)

    My assembly table seems to only work for regular Buildcraft recipes (gates, wires, and chipsets). Any MineTweaker'd recipes aren't giving me the option to make them. Other MineTweaker recipes, such as one log -> two planks, are working as intended. As this is a SP world, I can cheat the results...

    Return to IE:E

    I've been to hell and back today. Literally. I managed to connect to an old, abandoned deep miner's outpost. I collected a vein of quartz, a bit of glowstone, and a handful of hell-rock, then quickly returned home. The majority of that is going into storage, but the rock got turned into...

    Aspen took that room and made it into a farm. He was in there for hours, just watching his crops grow. I told him that we needed rubber from tree resin, and he got pretty upset. I take it to be because there weren't any rubber trees within our biome. After a shouting match, he stormed off in a...

    Return to IE:E

    In my name, I've been busy! I managed to light up a large amount of the nearby caves, nearly getting lost in the process. Really, though, can you blame me? While Chert was busy exploring that mess for as long as her food let her, I felt some power return. I guess she found her first diamonds...

    Hello there, readers! As you may notice, this is a different colored text, indicating a different narrator. Black text is from Chert, who is unaware of the reality of her world. This blue text is me, Agenos, this land's "guardian angel". I am one of few know the true nature of this place. I used...

    Progress! Dredging the nearby river for clay, and cannibalizing the desert on the other side, got me this coke oven. I used the design from Grandpa's railroad days. After some wait, I produced enough creosote to make my first forge hammer, which then helped me make a bucket. A lucky glance...

    Return to IE:E

    So... where do I begin? My name is Chert Goldstone. Rather, it was Chert Goldstone, but now it's just Chert. I'm a dwarf without a family, kicked out for public sobriety. Shameful, they said. Bah! I'll show them! Me and my healthy liver will create an even greater kingdom, the likes of which no...

    Survey - Future Quest Based Modpacks

    I really liked what they did with IE:E. Give me instructions to get through the early game, give me an ultimate objective, and let me connect the dots from one to the other, referencing a guide when needed. I don't need or want to have my hand held the entire way through.

    DW20 A new Playthrough!

    What exactly were you stuck on with integrated dynamics? I might be able to help, as would others who frequent the forums here.

    After a bit of rearranging of the mob sorter, I've got the pens in a nice line, just the right spacing to have a bellethorne for each mob type. I now have a passive bonemeal crafter, using the same system as the other passive corpora crafters. Nothing much to show there, but I did add one more...

    That expansion in the previous post? Still not enough wheat. So, I tore it down and rebuilt it; better, faster, more productive. Bonemeal gets exported to the middle boxes, seeds to the left, and potatoes to the right. Bonemeal is applied once a second (I've noticed that the nitrifies don't...

    So, the machine in the above post, like I suspected, was unable to keep up with wheat demand. Therefore, it must be expanded! Just another two farm blocks, growing wheat on the same clock as the others. This brings me up to three wheat for every potato (though some potatoes are replanted...

    New lag machine thing that I built! That controls... this: Hoo boy, where do I start? The flowers are fed a diet of baked potatoes and bread, produced on-site. These are grown somewhere in the tangle of terracotta blocks; they are placed by a dispenser, grown with red-string nutrifiers...

    Mathwiz617's 1.12.2 builds

    Before I go much further, it would be prudent to have an easy way to access everything in the massive tangle of chests, redstone, and corporea networks. I'm still in creative, but I know there's a chance this inspires someone, somewhere, to try this in survival, where you can't just pull...

    Now... filling up the mana pool for terrasteel production is simple. Let's complicate this! The creative mana pool represents a full mana battery's output (placed at max spark connection range). The yellow concrete holds the wire that reads the main pool's level. When this signal drops to 6...

    Ok, switching gears after a break, now on the DW20 pack. I've hopped back into my creative world, and started tinkering with Botania, with minimal usage of other mods. So far, I've come up with a way to passively keep a stack of terrasteel in a chest, as long as there's enough manasteel, mana...
